Prepare an appropriate hole
Choose a pot that is 1-2 times larger than the current pot, ensuring there is adequent drainage to prevent waterlogging roots. Plan on repotting every 3-5 years.
Use fertile soil
Choose soil rich in nutrients and with good drainage to support root growth.
Plant at the correct depth
Plant at the same depth as in the pot, keeping the top of the root ball level with the soil.
